Concentration of salt of salt or solid particles in fluid or soil
| Symbol | Dimension | SI units | Oil metric units | Oil field units | Additional |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Sal | – | ‰ |
* In engineering practice, the Salinity is often measured in [ mg/L ] = 0.001 ‰ but this is misnomer as the right-hand side is dimensionless quantity whereas the left-hand expression has a physical meaning of the density.
The relation between the two has only sense for water at melting point which has a unit density.
